S&P 500 Index candlestick chart

Can the S&P 500 break major resistance?
Intermediate uptrend for the S&P 500 Index with major resistance at 1,420.  RSI is confirming the uptrend.

S&P 500 Index 6 Month Candlestick Chart

The technical indicators in the above chart point to the index having a good chance to break major resistance which was the April, 2012 high. This will be a major test for the S&P 500 and the bears are waiting for any signs of capitulation. The only negative is the relatively light volume which is typical for the summer months. But, at least the volume has increased over the last three trading days. Take your signals from the market action and trade accordingly.

BCE (BCE:TSX) chart analysis

Always trade in the direction of the major trend
BCE chart analysis.  Always trade in the direction of the major trend.

BCE 4 Year Candlestick Chart

This is not the first time I have posted a chart for BCE where I emphasized the most important principle of technical analysis: Always trade in the direction of the major trend. Is there any doubt about the major trend for BCE? The 200 Day SMA is a good approximation of the trendline.

The current resistance level is $43.00 and there is a good chance that BCE will break above this resistance level when it reports before the bell on Wednesday.

Compare the above chart for BCE to the chart for the TSX Index.

The following are samples of my previous posts for BCE:
